9.1 Notes
Hybridization
The mixing of the native atomic orbitals to form
special orbitals for bonding.
3
With sp
orbitals, the atomic orbitals of s and p
reshape to form the tetrahedral shape.
Whenever a set of equivalent tetrahedral atomic orbitals is
required by an atom, this model assumes that the atom adopts a
3
3
set of sp
orbitals; the atom becomes sp
hybridized.
Example
Describe the bonding in the ammonia using the localized electron
model.
